he told house republicans talking about obama's ploy to drag the gop into a battle. this election is about jobs, jobs, jobs. two questions for you, are they going to listen? one question for you. are people going to listen? is the republican caucus going to listen to john boehner on this? how powerful is he at speaker? >> if there's one thing that keeps him up at night it's the worry there will be some sort of social issue, there will be some sort of scandal, something that does not have to do with the economy that will knock the republicans off message. i spoke to a bunch of leadership aides yesterday. they weren't thrilled having to put forward the abortion bill that would have outlawed sex collection abortion which is not a problem in this country. it's very hard to find a documented case of this happen. but as they said it's a red meat issue to give to their base. the idea though as you're going to see for the next few months is a really think correlation between the romney campaign and the house gop leadership to put things on house floor that pertain to jobs. t
